FLOWERING BULBS AND ROOTS 
Vines and Climbers 
CELASTBCS SCANDENS (Bittersweet). A 
native climbing or trailing plant with large leaves; 
yellow flowers in May or June, followed in the fall 
by clusters of orange-colored berries. 
Each 50c. and up. 
CLEMATIS (Large-Flowering Varieties). No 
other climbing plant equals in attractiveness the 
beautiful large-flowering Clematis. Their require¬ 
ments are somewhat different from most other 
plants and proper conditions must be given to 
secure satisfactory results. They need rich, deep 
soil, perfect drainage, abundance of water, and, 
most important of all, they should be planted with 
the crowns three inches beneath the surface of the 
soil. They seem to do best in a position where 
they will not be exposed to the full sun during 
the hottest part of the day. Hardy, but it is best 
to mulch them in winter. 
HENRYII. Strong grower, flowers four to six 
inches in diameter, and pure white. Very hardy. 
JACKMANII. This variety, with its strong, 
healthy growth, hardy nature and rich, deep vel¬ 
vety-purple flowers, is the most satisfactory of its 
class. Blooms with profusion on shoots of the 
present season; should be pruned early in spring. 
MADAME BARON VEILLARD. Light rose, lilac 
shadings. Much admired. 
VILLE DE LYON. Its blooming capacity is 
great and the flowers are of the most magnificent 
brilliant crimson; they are large and of beautiful 
circular form. 
Prices of above; each $1.00 and up. 
CLEMATIS PANICLLATA. The finest small- 
flowered Clematis extant. A wonderfully rapid 
grower, quickly covering trellises, arbors, etc. The 
flowers are pure white, deliciously fragrant and 
produced with the greatest freedom. It flowers in 
September, when few other vines are in bloom. 
This is the easiest to grow and most popular of all 
the small flowered vines. Each 35e and up. 
HONEYSUCKLES (Lonicera). We cannot speak 
too highly of this class, for covering arbors, fences, 
pergolas, verandas, etc. They are the best vines 
for ground planting under trees and if used on ter¬ 
races or embankments, will prevent washing. All 
are perfectly hardy and improve in beauty each 
year. 
BELGICA. (Sweet Scented Monthly). One of 
the most satisfactory Honeysuckles, producing con¬ 
tinuously large trusses of• red and yellow fragrant 
flowers.

evergreen sort; flowers pure white, changing to 
yellow; fragrant. Covered with flowers from July 
to November.

son. 
Prices of above; each 50c and up.

let blue blossoms, richly perfumed.

Creeper). A native vine sometimes called Five 
Fingered Ivy. A rapid grower, of sturdy growth.

fall they turn to bright crimson. Each 25o and up.
